Original source.

Cossmann 1889: 1101.

Type species.

Melanopsis pygmaea Hörnes, 1856, by original designation.

Remarks.

Established as a substitute name for Homalia Handmann, 1887, which Cossmann (1899), despite being aware of the difference, treated as a junior homonym of " Homala Schumacher" (actually Omala Schumacher, 1817, unjustified emendation to " Homala " by Agassiz 1847).
